It's been a while since I've watched some chess videos. Last night I lost my 13 yo dog and while I'm coping with grief I decided to watch more chess content for distraction and comfort, and for some reason I just had to choose Danya's channel. He has this sort of calm, nice vibe that makes me feel like I could grieve in peace while I learn some quality chess. Like when you're having a bad time back in school and you have that one teacher that makes your day better because they're nice to you.

The one in the video was a Delayed Alapin, though. Danya even calls it a misnomer in relation to regular Alapin. In fact, I play it myself as White and am inclined to agree with him.

Play e6 d5 against alapin you get them out of their comfort Or play d5 immediately so when you capture back with queen white cannot develop their knight with tempo and you can always get your queen out by checking the king

I’m not really a fan of the Najdorf, it just seems so much more complex and theory-heavy than the Accelerated Dragon. Playing d6 also means you don’t get d5 against something like the delayed Alapin. I think it would be much more beginner-friendly to switch back to a more simple variation
